CURRENT MISSION

Obtain the wisdom of dogs but keep the hygiene of humans

ABOUT ME

I'm a recent college graduate in the United States hoping to see more of the world before I buckle down into a stable career path--as to what that path might be, I have no idea yet.

I have a tight-knit family that includes three sisters and sometimes it's like we have our own language. I love having that closeness and tend to look for it everywhere. I'm not much of a tourist--my favorite traveling experiences have always been just hanging out somewhere new.

PHILOSOPHY

All the great movements in history started as an idea.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Dipping my toe into the water by being a hopeful participant--would offer a couch if I had my own place.

兴趣

I'm absolutely mad about dogs: my house has always had at least one and currently has three. I also love books and environmental economics.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Riding on a packhorse through Inner Mongolia, the grass so green, the sky so blue, and the hills so rolling-soft it was falling into a painting.

教，学，和分享

Oh gosh, there's nothing like making a list to remind you of all you have yet to learn...

In the job I unceremoniously quit to travel, I did social media marketing. I also have a mish-mash of cooking and knitting skills, so if you want to know about Chinese dumplings or making a scarf, I'm your lady. Always open to talking about dogs or economics, but I'm getting rather rusty on the latter.

I know a little Mandarin and would actually like an excuse to speak it again.
